Re: Yesterday's Herping trip - garter pics included

So did you I.D. the snake in the pics? Is is a Santa cruz aquatic, or Mt diablo, or an intergrade, or not sure?

This is an Eastern. We have the same coloration here in Michigan. In fact, 2 weeks ago was the first time I found a typical black/yellow eastern! This is the same color of the 4 I found Sunday.

Anyhow, by the time I see them, they are already going into the deep grass & bushes. I was still hurting from diving on the racer the day before so, I didn't do any diving on Thursday.

True, its not really hard to see, but you can also see how easily you could walk right by one like that. The gilberts skink was found the same way- just happened to spot it through the grass.
Always makes me wonder how many more I miss.

Marin county is not vagrans range either.
Jerry, what is it? You found it.

I say santa cruz, or santa cruz/diablo/oregon aquatic intergrade. (2 of the 3 anyways)
